Cannot Connect Macbook Pro To a TP Link Wireless Router

  • 17

I normally connect my MacBook Pro to the internet using an ethernet cable. Now I am trying to set up a wireless connection. I bought a TP Link Wireless Router, which does not have a cd for macs. When I try to connect to 192.168.1.1 it doesn’t happen. I noticed that when I go to the mac’s system preferences and enter 192.168.1.5 as my IP (I’m trying dchp with manual address), the router number it automatically assigns is 192.168.0.1. I typed that into the browser and that one doesn’t work either. I have spent many hours on this. Any help is much appreciated.

      You need to connect the MacBook to the Wireless Router via ethernet cable, then type into a browser the IP address of the router.

      In the Wireless Routers Manual it will inform how to setup Wireless Security etal, this will include setting a WPA Key.

      When the Wireless Router has been setup, remove the Ethernet Cable and undertake a scan of available wireless networks on the MacBook…………………
